Procedure:
1. Remove the grapes from the stems and rinse, then crush with the blackberries to release the juice.
2. Add the cream of tartar, lemon juice and sugar/water, mix thoroughly, then add yeast and close up the fermentation vessel. Take a hydrometer reading of the juice to determine sugar content before closing up the vessel, and record your results.
3. Punch Down The Cap of fruit that forms on the wine several times a day for two weeks. This will prevent mold and bacterial growth. Be sure to use a sanitized spoon each time.
4. After the wine has fermented with the the grape skins for at least 2 weeks, strain the wine through cheese cloth to remove the skins and pulp, then transfer the wine to a sanitized vessel with an airlock for continued fermentation. Take a hydrometer reading to determine if primary fermentation is complete. Record your results.
5. MALOLACTIC FERMENTATION NOTE: Your wine may undergo a secondary fermentation where any malic acid present is converted to lactic acid. This will improve the flavor and mouthfeel of the wine. This is may not happen in your wine, but if it does, it will release more CO2, so make sure to use airlocks on your vessels until final bottling.
6. After 30 days the wine will clear significantly. Siphon the wine to a third vessel and add sterilized oak pieces for flavor if desired.
7. After a final 30 days, bottle your wine and let it sit undisturbed for 6 months to 1 year before drinking.
PORK CACCIATORE:
1 pork tenderloin - cut into 1/2 inch thick medallions
6-8 mushrooms - sliced
1 sprig fresh rosemary - chopped fine
1/2 cup red wine
1 jar of your favorite pasta sauce
1. Season the pork medallions with salt and pepper, then sear them on medium high heat in a few tablespoons of olive oil until browned on both sides.
2. Remove the pork once browned, then add the mushrooms to the pan and saute until browned.
3. Add the rosemary and saute for 30 seconds, then add the wine and scrape the bottom of the pan to release the delicious browned bits.
4. Return the pork to the pan and add the pasta sauce, then cover and simmer on medium low heat for 10 minutes.
5. Serve over pasta or with a nice crusty loaf of sourdough bread:-)
